Appraisal

A specific appraisal format is necessary to assess the demand for hygiene, sanitation, and water in schools and the appropriateness of the options selected, as well as to verify the technical, social, and economic feasibility and sustainability of the proposed subproject.

What is done during appraisal? Subproject appraisal should be undertaken with a standardized appraisal checklist designed to verify and confirm school commitment and capacity to ensure sustainable service delivery.

Once projects are selected, a Memorandum of Understanding is created between the school, the project, and the sector agency, implementing agency, or local government, as appropriate. The Memorandum of Understanding may be based on a template to ensure that it covers all essential considerations.

Who appraises? The Project, in conjunction with sector agencies, appoints a subcommittee to conduct an appraisal of each school that has submitted a project proposal.


Checklist of Key Components:

  • Establishment of appraisal criteria and checklist
  • Establishment of qualified appraisal evaluation committee
  • Template Memorandum of Understanding between Project and School
